“I am still using this kit, and have so far found it useful. It is important that all students are reminded and supported with understanding how to treat themselves and others respectfully. This kit contains useful ideas and activities to integrate this into the classroom. The only con for me is my kids are year 3/4 so I had to choose if I wanted the year 1-3 pack or the 4-6 pack. Happy with my choice. This kit has especially helped kids who struggle with maintaining relationships and seeing from others' point of view. :)”

“Once I got my head around all the pieces and adapted a few for my age group (year 0/1) my class have had many positive learning and interacting experiences. Finding this kit was perfect timing - I was looking for something to build resilience, empathy and something to get the children to work together. I have continued to develop more learning about self regulation from the skills we build.”
